Same fields. Each cell is that model's published text. A blank stays "Not published by manufacturer." The outlet chip does not hide either column.
| Spec | Syncrowave 212 | Power MIG 260 |
|---|---|---|
| Process | AC/DC TIG (GTAW), pulsed DC TIG (GTAW-P), DC stick (SMAW), and MIG (GMAW) with a Spoolmate 150. | MIG and flux-cored. |
| Output amp range | AC/DC TIG: 20–210 A. DC stick: 30–200 A. MIG: 30–175 A. The specifications table narrows 120 V DC TIG to 20–140 A and 240 V DC stick to 35–160 A. | 30–300 A. Wire feed speed 50–700 ipm (1.3–17.7 m/min). |
| Rated duty cycle | Quick specs lead with 130 A at 15.2 V, 60% duty cycle. The table adds, at 60%: 120 V DC TIG 110 A at 14.4 V, and 240 V DC stick 120 A at 24.8 V. It also prints 210 A at 20% and 120 A at 100% on the AC/DC TIG duty column, without tying those two lines to one voltage. | 250 A / 26.5 V / 40%. |
| Input voltage and plug | 120–240 V, 1-phase, 50/60 Hz. Amps input at rated output in the table: 18.8 A for 120 V DC TIG and 11.8 A for 240 V DC TIG. The 240 V DC stick row prints 16.3 A. | 208/230/460/575 V, 1-phase, 60 Hz. Input current at rated output: 59/55/27/21 A in that voltage order. The 230 V figure is 55 A. This check treats that 230 V figure as the 240 V outlet class. |

| Weight | 54 lb. (24.5 kg), air-cooled machine only. | 247 lb (112 kg). Dimensions 37.3 x 18 x 40.4 in. |
| Material thickness | AC/DC TIG: 120 V, 20 gauge–1/8 in.; 240 V, 20 gauge–1/4 in. DC stick: 120 V, 16 gauge–3/16 in.; 240 V, 16 gauge–3/8 in. MIG spool gun: 120 V, 1/8 in.; 240 V, 1/8–3/8 in. The table does not name the metal. | Not published by manufacturer |
